Testimonials House Papoura

"Loved House Papoura, the views, the space, the verandahs, the character, the breezes through the house, the table under the mulberry tree where we ate all our meals. Dimitri was a very affable host and we absolutely adored his olive oil and the bottle he gave us to take home. I am a very keen cook so that was really appreciated" – KR – July 2007.

“The first moment we saw the beautiful villa, we fell in love with it. We really enjoyed dining in the shade of the tree. We had a great time in this nice house. We spent lots of time listening to the sound of the grasshoppers and the cicadas; the walks through the olive gardens were very relaxing. the breezes and the swimming pool brought nice refreshment from the sun. We feel very lucky that we did not stay in Platanias but in this peaceful oasis; we searched for heaven and we found it here” – July 2006.

“What a fantastic 2 weeks we have had! A BIG thank you to Dimitris and Billy for making us so welcome and supplying us with delicious olive oil, wine and fruit!

 “What a holiday! Whether is was jumping in the car and visiting places and seeing things or simply staying put, enjoying the house and the pool, and looking at that wonderful view; it's definitely a view you can never tire of. Thank you to Dimitris and Billy, we were so looked after and return to the UK thoroughly rested” - May 2005

“First visitors from Denmark, but not our first time to Crete. Papoura is a very nice house with a fantastic view. We all hope that the next family will enjoy their stay here as much as we did!” – June 2005

“We have travelled to Crete many times in recent years and have never stayed anywhere quite as comfortable as Papoura. The views are truly magnificent varying throughout the day with the changing light. In the evening there are glorious sunsets.
Dimitris is a wonderful host offering friendly advice and information about the local area. The pool is a major asset for the house, offering a cool retreat from the midday sun. Journeys from here are easy to all western areas. 2 supermarkets in Maleme serve all your needs for supplies” – July 2005

“I believe we are the first Americans to stay in Dimitri's beautiful house on the hill. We are so glad we discovered it and have enjoyed every minute of our visit, especially the beautiful sunsets from the terrace and the typical Greek charm of the place. We will miss this special place in Crete!” – September 2005
